This week I upgrade my very old version (not sure what version number it was) of WD to the latest version. That night we had massive power issues in our area and even thou I was on surge protection I lost my hard drive. This happened before the daily backup took place so I don't have a backup of the latest version.
So this is what I did - I installed an old version of WD I had - not 100% sure it was the right version but I normally keep a copy of the version I am running, then copied backup I took before upgrade of all files in wdisplay directory files on top to get all my settings and data back.
I read that you are supposed to execute wdisplayftp.reg but I could not run it. The file is zero in size.
I then installed the latest version of WD again.
I have had a look around at all my settings...took me a while to find some of them as things have moved around, but everything seem to be there. My license is registered, I can see all the records, I can see all February rain stats. I have data showing in the month to date graphs. I would have to load old files to see older stats.
My settings for ftping up to web server have all gone thou which is a pain.
I have not connected the weather station yet as I want to make sure everything is alright and I want to be able to get the missed data.
So now for the sanity check...is there anything I might of missed in checking before I connect my weather station to the laptop again?
